GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING: Read all safety warnings,
instructions, illustrations and specications
provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, re
and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
◾Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
◾Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
◾Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
◾Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk
of electric shock
◾Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
◾Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
◾Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
◾When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
◾If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
◾Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the inuence of drugs, alcohol medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
◾Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
◾Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off-position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on the
switch or energizing power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
◾Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
◾Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
◾Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
◾If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used. Use of dust
devices can reduce dust-related hazards.
◾Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of
tools allow you to become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.

EN
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
◾Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
◾Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
◾Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or the battery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
◾Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the
power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
◾Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect
the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
◾Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
◾Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
◾Keep handles and grasping surface dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
◾Recharge only with the charger specied by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of re when used
with another battery pack.
◾Use power tools only with specically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and re.
◾When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause
burns or a re.
◾Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
or burns.
◾Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged
or modied. Damaged or modied batteries may
exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in re,
explosion or risk of injury.
◾Do not expose a battery pack or tool to re
or excessive temperature. Exposure to re or
temperature above 100 °C may cause explosion.
◾Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the battery pack or tool outside the temperature
range specied in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the specied
range may damage the battery and increase the risk
of re.
SERVICE
◾Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
◾Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.

be carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function. Check for
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition
that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that
is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced
by an authorized service center unless indicated
elsewhere in this manual.
◾Make sure all fasteners are in place and secure.
Be sure the cutting attachment shield is properly
attached and in the position recommended by the
manufacturer.
◾Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove
all objects such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire,
or string, which can be thrown or become entangled
in the cutting attachment. Clear the area of children,
bystanders and pets. At a minimum, keep all children,
bystanders and pets outside a 15 m radius; outside

56 VOLT LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS LINE TRIMMER — ST1510E 11
EN
◾Damage to line trimmer - If you strike a foreign
object with the line trimmer or it becomes entangled,
stop the tool immediately, remove the battery pack
from the line trimmer, check for damage and have
any damage repaired before further operation is
attempted. Do not operate with a broken guard or
cutting attachment.
◾If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally,
stop the motor, remove the battery pack from the
line trimmer and check immediately for the cause.
Vibration is generally a warning of trouble. A loose
cutting unit may vibrate, crack, break or come off the
line trimmer, which may result in serious or fatal injury.
Make sure that the cutting unit is properly installed
and securely fastened. If the cutting unit loosens after
xing it in position, replace it immediately. Never use a
line trimmer with a loose cutting unit.
◾Replace a cracked, damaged or worn-out cutting
unit immediately, even if damage is limited to
supercial cracks. Such unit may shatter at high
speed and cause serious or fatal injury.
◾To reduce the risk of injury, never work on a ladder
or on any other insecure support. Never hold the
cutting unit above waist height.
◾Never use other wires in place of the nylon cutting
lines, pieces of wire could break off and be thrown
at high speed toward the operator or bystanders.
◾Keep rm footing and balance. Do not over-reach.
Keep cutting unit below waist level. Keep all parts of
your body away from the rotating cutting unit.
◾Check the cutting unit at regular short intervals
during operation, or immediately if there is a
noticeable change in cutting behavior.
◾For best results, your battery should be charged in
a location where the temperature is greater than
5° C and less than 40° C. Do not store it outside or
in vehicles.
◾Only use EGO authorized polymer trimmer line and
blade accessories, trimmer line and blade that are
designed for use with this line trimmer. Although
certain unauthorized units might be extremely
dangerous, and/or damaging to the tools.
◾If you are approached, stop the motor and cutting unit.
◾Warn the operator of the danger of blade thrust
(only using with 3-teeth blade).
◾Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade
contacts an object that it does not immediately cut.
◾Blade thrust can be violent enough to cause the unit
and/or operator to be propelled in any direction, and
possibly lose control of the unit.
◾Blade thrust can occur without warning if the blade
snags, stalls or binds.
◾Blade thrust is more likely to occur in areas where it
is difcult to see the material being cut.
◾Do not attach any blade to a unit without proper
installation of all required parts. Failure to use the
proper parts can cause the blade to y off and
seriously injure the operator and/or bystanders.
Discard blades that are bent, warped, cracked,
broken, or damaged in any way. Use a sharp blade.
A dull blade is more likely to snag and thrust (only
using with 3-teeth blade).
◾The battery pack shall be disposed of safely.
◾A coasting blade/line can cause injury while it
continues to spin after the motor is stopped or
trigger is released. Maintain proper control until
the blade/line has completely stopped rotating.

HOLDING THE LINE TRIMMER
WARNING: Dress properly to reduce the risk of
injury when operating this tool. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Wear eye and ear/hearing protection.
Wear heavy duty, long trousers, boots and gloves. Do not
wear short trousers, sandals or go barefoot.
Before operating, hold the trimmer with both hands, one
hand on the rear handle and the other on the front-assist
handle which shall be straight (Fig. M). Then check for
balanced footing and a proper cutting distance.
NOTICE: The trimmer head is parallel to the ground at a
proper cutting distance without the operator bending over.
STARTING/STOPPING THE LINE TRIMMER
To Start
Press down the lock-off button then depress the trigger.
Different pressure on the trigger results in variable rotat-
ing speed of the cutting line. More pressure, higher speed.
To Stop
Release the lock-off button and the trigger.
NOTICE: The motor runs only when the lock-off button
and trigger are both pressed.
WARNING: Always remove the battery pack from
the line trimmer during work breaks and after nishing
work.
USING THE LINE TRIMMER
WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury, wear
goggles or safety glasses at all times when operating
this unit. Wear a face mask or dust mask in dusty
locations.
Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all ob-
jects, such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or line, that
can be thrown or become entangled in the cutting attach-
ment. Clear the area of children, bystanders, and pets.
At a minimum, keep all children, bystanders and pets at
least 15m away; there still may be risk to bystanders from
thrown objects. Bystanders should be encouraged to wear
eye protection. If you are approached, stop the motor and
cutting attachment immediately.
Before each use, check for damage/worn parts
Check the bump head, guard and front-assist handle
and replace the parts that are cracked, warped, bent, or
damaged in any away.
The line-cutting blade on the edge of the guard can dull
over time. It is recommended that you periodically sharp-
en it with a le or replace it with a new blade.
WARNING: Always wear gloves when mounting the
guard or servicing the blade. Take care of the blade on
the guard and protect your hand from cutting.
After each use, clean the trimmer.
CAUTION: Obstructions in the vents will prevent
the air from owing into the motor housing and result in
overheating or damaged of the motor.
Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool.
Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse
any part of the tool into a liquid.
◾Keep air vents in the motor housing from debris at all
times.
WARNING: Never use water for cleaning your
trimmer. Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic
parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from
various types of commercial solvents. Use clean cloths
to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
TIPS FOR BEST TRIMMING RESULTS (FIG. N)
◾The correct angle for the cutting attachment is parallel
to the ground.
◾Do not force the trimmer. Allow the very tip of the line
to do the cutting (especially along walls). Cutting with
more than the tip will reduce cutting efciency and
may overload the motor.
◾The cutting height is determined by the distance of the
cutting line from the lawn surface.
◾Grass over 20cm should be cut by working
progressively from top to the bottom in small
increments to avoid premature line wear or motor
drag.
◾Slowly move the trimmer into and out of the area
being cut, maintaining the cutting head position at the
desired cutting height. This movement can be either
a forward-backward motion or a side-to-side motion.
Cutting shorter lengths produces best results.
◾Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.
◾Wire and picket fences can cause extra line wear or
breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood may
wear line rapidly.

◾Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings,
siding, and fence posts can easily be damaged by the
line.
◾Fig. N parts description see below:
N-1 Best cutting area N-2 Dangerous cutting area
ADJUSTING CUTTING LINE LENGTH
The trimmer head allows the operator to release more
cutting line without stopping the motor. As line becomes
frayed or worn, additional line can be released by lightly
tapping the spool retainer on the ground while operating
the trimmer (Fig. O).
NOTICE: Line release will become more difcult as the
cutting line becomes shorter.
WARNING: Do not remove or alter the line cutting
blade assembly. Excessive line length will cause the motor
to overheat and may result in serious personal injury.
LINE REPLACEMENT
NOTICE: Always use the recommended nylon cutting
line with a diameter that does not exceed 2.4 mm. Using
line other than that specied may cause the line trimmer
to overheat or become damaged.
WARNING: Never use metal-reinforced line, wire,
or rope, etc. These can break off and become dangerous
projectiles.
The line trimmer is equipped with an advanced auto-line
winding system. The cutting line can be wound onto the
spool simply by pressing a single button. Loading a full
spool can usually be completed in 12 seconds. Avoid
repeated operation of the winding system in rapid succes-
sion to reduce the possibility of motor damage.
1. Remove the battery pack.
2. Remove the remaining cutting line, if necessary.
Simply pull it out by hand.
3. Cut one piece of cutting line (4m) long. Insert the line
into the eyelet (Fig. P) and push the line until the end
of the line comes out of the opposite eyelet.
Fig. P parts description see below:
P-1 Cutting Line P-3 Eyelet
P-2 Lower Cover
4. Remove the battery if it has been mounted onto the
line trimmer in previous step.
5. Pull the line from the other side until equal lengths
of the line appear on both sides of the trimmer head
(Fig. Q).
6. Install the battery pack onto the string trimmer.
Press and hold the line-loading button to start the
line-winding motor. The line will be wound into the
trimmer head continuously (Fig. R).
7. Watch the remaining line length carefully. Prepare to
release the button as soon as approximately 18cm
of line are left on each side. Briey press the line-
loading button to adjust the length until 14cm of the
line is showing on each side.
8. Push down on the trimmer head while pulling on the
lines to manually advance the line in order to check
for proper assembly of the cutting line.
NOTICE: In case the line is pulled into the trimmer head
by accident, open the head and pull the cutting line
out from the spool. Follow the section “RELOAD THE
CUTTING LINE” in this manual to reload the line.
RELOAD THE CUTTING LINE
When the cutting line breaks from the line outlet or the
cutting line is not released when the trimmer head is
tapped, follow the steps below to remove the remaining
cutting line and reload the line.
1. Press the two release tabs on the trimmer head and
remove the trimmer head by pulling it straight out
(Fig. S-1 & S-2).
2. Remove the cutting line from the trimmer head and
insert the spring into the slot in the lower cover
assembly (Fig. T).
3. With one hand holding the trimmer, use another hand
to grasp the lower cover assembly and align the
slots in the lower cover assembly with the release
tabs. Press the lower cover assembly until it snaps
